We Provide the Best Kids' Dental Care in Farmington, MI

With so many unfamiliar sounds and strange sights, the dentist's office can be scary for kids. Fortunately, kids love us! Our team knows that the more fun we have with oral health, the more likely kids will stick with regular brushing and flossing, keeping their mouths in great shape. We show each child how to properly brush and floss teeth to prevent problems like tooth decay and tartar build-up, which can cause cavities.

Our team will explain every instrument before we use it, and your child is welcome to ask any questions! Before going to work, we'll show how each tool is used and discuss what will happen next. Naturally, the more your child knows about what's about to happen, the less scary the experience will be—and at Pesis Dental, we believe it's important that we earn your child's trust to eliminate fear and set the foundation for a lifetime of positive dental visits.

FAQs About Pediatric Dentistry

• What should I do if my child is afraid of visiting the dentist?

  It's not uncommon for children to feel anxious about dental visits. To help them overcome their fear, we encourage you to talk to them about what to expect and emphasize the positive aspects of their experience, such as the fun environment and caring staff.

  You can also role-play a dental visit at home, using a toothbrush and a doll to demonstrate the process, which can make them feel more comfortable and prepared.

• How can I teach my child good oral hygiene habits?

  Teaching your child good oral hygiene can be both fun and engaging. Start by brushing your teeth together and singing songs to make the experience enjoyable; this encourages them to mimic your actions and develop their routine. Providing them with age-appropriate toothbrushes and toothpaste can also help them feel more involved in their dental care.

• What dental procedures are common for children?

  Common dental procedures for children include routine check-ups, cleanings, fluoride treatments, and sealants. These procedures help to prevent cavities and other oral health issues, ensuring your child's teeth stay healthy as they grow.

  In some cases, children may also require orthodontic evaluations or treatments to address alignment issues early on.

• How often should my child visit the dentist?

  Generally, children are recommended to visit the dentist every six months for routine check-ups and cleanings. However, the frequency may vary depending on your child's specific dental needs and oral health. If your child has a history of cavities or other dental issues, your dentist may suggest more frequent visits to monitor their oral health closely.

• What are the signs that my child may need to see the dentist sooner than scheduled?

  There are several signs that may indicate your child requires immediate dental attention, including persistent tooth pain, swelling in the gums, or sensitivity to hot or cold foods and drinks.

  If you notice any unusual changes in your child's oral health, it's best to consult with your pediatric dentist to determine if an earlier appointment is necessary. Prompt action can often prevent more serious dental issues from developing later on.
